Abstract
CRIEPI has been condunting R & D activities on development of "High-efficiency Biomass/Waste Carbonizing Gasification Power Generation System" in collaboration with Okadora Co., Ltd. This system can use various fuels by integrating carbonizing technology of Okadora as pretreatment equipment of the fuel such as biomass and waste, etc. with entrained flow gasification technology of CRIEPI. This system can obtain high thermal efficiency because the fuel such as biomass and waste is fed into the gasifier after pyrolyzed in the carbonizer by using the exhaust gas from the power generation system such as the gas engine. As a result of gasification tests of wood chips, it was clarified that the carbonizing gasifier can provide the sufficient product gas for the gas engine operation.
